1 pdr blank

Hello All after a conversation at a recent fair I decided to revisit a piece in my collection.

Based on our conversation I believe this is a 1 pdr blank cartridge, could someone please confirm this?

Next question does anyone have a picture or better yet a dimensioned drawing of the wooden insert?

I would like to fabricate a replica to make the piece look more complete.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

The wad is lacquered cardboard from the appearance of my loaded Mk 11 Blank and is not wood.
Check the old links here under "1Pr Blank Mk 11" for more information.

Thank you for the great pictures and information. I did not expect the case rim to be rolled over.
